Vintage Swiss pencil sharpener made of early bakelite plastic, dating to the early to mid-20th century. The piece features a classic two-tone design in dark brown and black with an internal metal sharpening mechanism.
Marked “SWISS MADE” and “BREVETE DANS TOUS PAYS” with original retailer label from Geneva, confirming Swiss origin. Solid construction and attractive industrial design typical of the period.
The sharpener remains fully functional and can still be used, making it suitable both for collectors and practical display.
A scarce early plastic writing accessory with strong collector appeal, especially for bakelite, Swiss design, and desk accessory collectors.
